In the third year of Yuanshi in the Western Han dynasty, the Dog-Blood Gate incident, also known as the Lü Kuan case, saw Wang Yu, son of Wang Mang, seek permission for the family of Empress Dowager Wei, maternal relatives of Emperor Ping of Han, Liu Kan, to enter the capital. This enraged his father, Wang Mang. Wang Mang killed his son and used the opportunity to purge the Wei family, with over a hundred people caught up in the slaughter.
The entire Wei family was executed. Only the mother of Liu Kan, the last emperor of the Western Han, Empress Dowager Wei, and her cousin, the Queen of Zhongshan, survived. The queen was deposed and reduced to commoner status, then exiled to Hepu, where she vanished into the mists of history.

Wang Hong, son of the Marquis of Hongyang: I'm your childhood friend. Wait for me, and I'll surely rescue you and bring you back to the Central Plains.
Wei Xiao: Wait for you? Then I'd never make it back.
Liu Chengdu: Your Majesty, may we consummate our marriage tonight?

Xiahou Dun: As you wished, I became a thief. I can't go back now.
Wei Xiao: As you wished, I can only be a dog. Here I come.
